Two members of the Gangster Disciples who pleaded guilty to the attempted murder of four teens and a man in South Memphis in 2014 have been sentenced to more than 41 years in prison.

Florence "Nikki" Anthony, 38, and Erik "E" Reese, 37, along with five other Gangster Disciples pleaded guilty March 8 to attempted murder in aid of racketeering activity.

On June 22, Judge Samuel H. Mays Jr. sentenced Anthony to 135 months and Reese to 382 months, for a total of 517 months in federal prison stemming from the 2014 incident.

According to authorities, in June 2014, police said four juveniles and a man were shot multiple times at the Hillview Apartments.

Police said the shooting stemmed from an altercation Anthony and her children were involved with the teens and the man who authorities identified as rival gang members.

According to a news release Monday from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Western District of Tennessee, authorities said Anthony reported the confrontation to her Gangster Disciple chain-of command who issued orders to retaliate.

Reese and four other members of the Gangster Disciples went to the apartment complex and shot the five people.

The other five gang members who also have pleaded guilty to the charges in the shooting have upcoming sentencing hearings.
